Greetings..!
Newton and kilogram force are two units of Pressure . Pressure is defined as the force exerted per unit area . It's another unit is Pascal named after the famous French scientist Blaise Pascal .
1 Kilogram Force = 9.8 N ( approximately taken as 10N, for simplicity)
Pressure is directly proportional to force applied and inversely proportional to area of contact .

They are different units of the same thing. The kilogram-force is a gravitational metric unit of force. One Newton is defined as the force that will accelerate a mass of one kilogram at the rate of one meter per second per second.
